The Tide Decides was issued by Musea Records on CD July 7 2009. (The album was later issued digitally by Musea Records in 2010) The second full length by Echo Us is a concept album in it's truest sense and is the first release in an ongoing string of interlinked works. The series starts on the earth-plane describing the evolution of physical reality linked with the life of a single person. The Tide Decides brings forth a life, living as if it moved in tandem and perfectly parallel with the entirety of human existence. From birth through evolution, to perish or reincarnate The Tide Decides concept is of a fantastic nature, but loosely ties to our philosophical ideas and ideals of a new (meta) physics, new age, and the falling away of time-based consciousness.
